How to Create an API Token
The Vamp API requires a Bearer token in the Authorization
header for every API request. You can generate an API token and use it as a Bearer token.
Authorization: Bearer <api-token>
API Token Settings
Click your profile picture in the upper, right-hand corner of the screen.
Select API Tokens from the dropdown menu.
Create the Token
In the Create API Token section give the API token a unique Name.
Next, select the Permissions you would like the token to have.
Permissions are formatted as resource:ability
. For example, guide:read
allows the token to read Guides.
API tokens are tied to your Vamp account. Your ability to perform certain actions may be limited by your Team role permissions in addition to the permissions you set on the token itself.
Select the Create button to generate the token.
Copy the Token
An API Token popup will be displayed.
Select the token with your cursor and copy it before you close the popup.
Store the API token in a secure place. For your security, the token will not be displayed again after you close the popup.
Now you can use the API Token when submitting API requests.
